Key Features

  • Fixed 3.3 V output voltage with tight regulation for logic and microcontroller supply rails
  • Low nominal dropout voltage of 0.45 V (maximum 1.3 V) enabling operation from 4.3 V to 6 V inputs
  • 8-pin SOIC-8 surface-mount package for standard SMT assembly and small PCB footprint
  • Absolute maximum input voltage of 6.5 V providing margin for transient protection
  • Pb-free, RoHS-compliant construction with JEDEC e3 moisture sensitivity rating
  • Fixed output simplifies design by eliminating external resistor divider network

Applications

The TC1265-3.3VOA is used in embedded systems, microcontroller boards, and portable instruments where a 5 V source must be regulated down to a clean 3.3 V rail with minimal dropout and low quiescent current. It also appears in USB-powered accessories, Wi-Fi module supply circuits, and battery-backed logic boards where space-efficient SOIC-8 packaging and a fixed 3.3 V output simplify BOM management.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum input voltage TC1265-3.3VOA needs to maintain a regulated 3.3 V output?

TC1265-3.3VOA requires a minimum input of 4.3 V to sustain a regulated 3.3 V output, corresponding to the nominal 0.45 V dropout voltage. Under worst-case conditions with a maximum 1.3 V dropout, the input must stay above 4.6 V to guarantee regulation, which is easily met from a 5 V USB or regulated wall supply.

Can TC1265-3.3VOA be used directly from a single-cell Li-Ion battery as the supply drops during discharge?

A single-cell Li-Ion battery typically discharges from 4.2 V down to about 3.0 V. TC1265-3.3VOA requires at least 4.3 V input to maintain its 3.3 V output, so regulation will drop out before the battery is fully depleted. For Li-Ion single-cell designs, consider a lower-dropout LDO rated for under 0.2 V dropout, or use a two-cell configuration supplying at least 6 V input.

How does the SOIC-8 package of TC1265-3.3VOA compare to SOT-223 packages for thermal management?

The SOIC-8 package provides moderate thermal dissipation through its 8-lead copper frame, but the SOT-223 package has a larger exposed pad offering lower junction-to-board thermal resistance, typically 25°C/W versus 80°C/W for SOIC-8. For output currents above 200 mA with higher input-output differentials, a SOT-223 packaged LDO may be preferred; the TC1265-3.3VOA in SOIC-8 is optimal for low-to-moderate current supplies under 300 mA.

What is the procurement lead time and shelf life consideration for TC1265-3.3VOA?

Microchip lists a factory lead time of approximately 10 weeks for TC1265-3.3VOA in SOIC-8. The part carries a YTEOL score of 8 indicating it remains in active production. Buyers should place safety stock orders 3 months ahead for production builds and confirm availability with authorized distributors for immediate delivery needs.
